In the first season of "Criminal Minds", Lao Zhao and his plan are at least twenty episodes.

This number is actually not very exaggerated, it is just a small number for many online dramas with huge investment now. But when Sun Peng proposed that the investment in a single episode could only go up but not down, the people of Golden Eagle Video and Lao Zhao were a little embarrassed.

Three episodes of the pilot broadcast, each episode costs as much as four million!

If every episode is really maintained at this standard, it means that 80 million will be invested in the first season alone, and the first three episodes will be more than 100 million!

In this way, Lao Zhao and Golden Eagle Video will be entangled.

Lao Zhao definitely can't come up with so much money, if he really wants to shoot, he will inevitably introduce investment, or let Golden Eagle Video increase the proportion, which is definitely not in line with his ideas. As for Golden Eagle Video, although they produce online dramas that invest hundreds of millions of dollars every year, and there are more than one, but invest 100 million in a new drama that does not have a big star to join?

If nothing else, it's too risky!

However, Sun Peng's export overseas ...... It made them a little excited.

The style of this drama is very American, which is something that everyone recognizes, and the subject matter is also a crime drama that the West, including Japan and South Korea, likes, so no one can say that they don't have this idea, right?

Just when Lao Zhao and the others were entangled, Sun Peng took care of himself and pulled Li Lizhi to chat.

Anyway, not to mention Lin Lin and Qian Hong in this kind of thing, even director Li Lizhi doesn't have any right to speak, just wait for these two groups of people to make the final decision.

After discussing together for a long time, after the people of Golden Eagle Video made two phone calls, Lao Zhao grabbed Sun Peng, who was chatting happily with Li Lizhi, rubbed his hands and asked in a low voice: "Xiaopeng, can't this investment be discussed?" Twenty episodes and eighty million, that's too much! And even if you want to export overseas, we can take our time, you can't want to eat a bite to become fat! ”

…… Eat to be fat?

After hearing these words, Sun Peng's face suddenly darkened.

He has gained weight for more than two years, and now he is still hanging below one hundred and thirteen, and he is still far from the goal of one hundred and fourteen, so when he heard Lao Zhao's words, he sensitively thought of his weight......

Of course, this matter is purely because he thinks too much.

Frowning and pondering for a while, Sun Peng felt that he still couldn't let them come nonsense, shook his head and said: "Brother-in-law, it's not a question of whether the investment is big or not, if it's too big, you can do ten episodes first!" Ten episodes will be a maximum investment of 40 million, which shouldn't be very high, right? ”

I already felt that it was not as good as the original, but what would happen if I cut the budget again?

"Ten episodes? That's too little. ”

Lao Zhao also frowned, shook his head and said.

"Hehe, ten episodes less?"

Sun Peng, who also wanted to spend less time writing the script, pursed his lips and said helplessly: "I think there are ten episodes in the first season, plus the thirteen episodes of the pilot drama, it's almost the same, isn't the number of Japanese dramas in one season!" And these cases are all independent, and they don't have to be filmed like other dramas...... I think you guys might think about it. ”

"This ......"

After hesitating for a moment, Lao Zhao discussed with the representative of Golden Eagle Video again.

It's hard to figure out how to invest in TV dramas, as long as you make something good, have enough ratings or clicks, no matter how big the investment is, you can earn it back, and if you can make something that you like overseas, it will be even more worry-free. But what if it doesn't work out? There are a lot of TV dramas that lose money every year, even if everyone has confidence in "Criminal Minds", who would dare to make this military order?

Therefore, reducing the risk is the safest choice.

It's a pity that the copyright and script of this drama are in Sun Peng's hands, even if the copyright can handle the script, you don't have a problem if you don't write the script, so the discussion was fruitless for a long time, and the group of people dispersed after a meal.

Sun Pengwan refused Li Lizhi's invitation to continue the discussion with him, and everyone went back to their respective homes and found their own mothers.

Because of Sun Peng's hard requirements, Lao Zhao and Golden Eagle Video, who were originally anxious, are about to start communicating again, after all, such a huge investment is not a random decision, at least the name Sun Peng has not yet reached the point where people can come up with 100 million without blinking. So Sun Peng waited for the news steadily, and by the way, he could save a few episodes of the script.

This time he didn't have to think too much about it, just copy it.

So one night he wrote an episode of the script, and the next day Sun Peng easily took the twenty sets of sample books of "The Lion, the Witch and the Magic Wardrobe" sent to him by Sunflower Publishing House, and came to the welfare home with Zheng Jia.

It's a simple hair, and the children jump and jump happily.

"Look, how happy they are!"

Unconsciously hugged Sun Peng's arm, Zheng Jia whispered with a smile on his face. And not far from them, Zhou Yuanchang looked at this scene sadly, and silently went to wash the children's clothes......

"It's true that these children's requests are easily met."

Patting his girlfriend's little hand, Sun Peng smiled and said, "When I have time to go back, I'll write them a few more stories...... Hmm, how about I make a set of picture books every year and give them a set of books every year? ”

Suddenly, on a whim, Sun Peng had an idea in his heart.

"Okay!"

Zheng Jia's eyes lit up, and he nodded excitedly in agreement: "This idea is fantastic!" In this way, when the total number increases in the future, we can make a collection of stories...... Let's call him a collection of sunflower stories! ”。

Sunflower is the name of this welfare home.

Sun Peng naturally didn't object, nodded and smiled: "Then let's say okay, I will make a picture book every year in the future...... Well, for the time being, I'll set a five-year deadline, and I don't know if I'll be able to write so many stories after a long time. And then when it's published every year, we'll send them here, how about that?

"Hee-hee, that's okay!"

With a tilt of his little head, Zheng Jia blinked his eyes and stretched out his right little thumb with a smile.

"Uh......"

glanced at Zheng Jia speechlessly, Sun Peng subconsciously looked at the children who were still laughing at themselves just now, and found that a few of them were secretly looking at them, looking very cute and cute with a curious look, blinking a few pairs of big eyes as if asking: What are big brothers and sisters doing? Could it be that adults will also pull the hook and hang themselves for a hundred years?

The old face turned red, and Sun Peng suddenly shook his head like a rattle: "Jiajia, don't make ...... trouble"

"Who's messing with you? Do you pull the hook or not? ”

Of course, Zheng Jia noticed the change in the child's gaze and Sun Peng's expression, and while trying to hold back a smile, he stretched his fingers to his face again.

“……”

Looking at the many pairs of eyes around him, the expression on Sun Peng's face was extremely exciting.

After Zheng Jia stared at him for more than ten seconds, Sun Peng finally closed his eyes and stretched out his right little thumb in "humiliation......
